Becoming Midnight: Rise of the Black Vampires (Graphic Novel)

Fifteen-year-old Ambrosia Wharton has all the problems of the average teenager, except she's a vampire.

Publisher Marketing: " Becoming Midnight does not disappoint when it comes to racial inclusion. Not only is Amber an African-American vampire, the story is littered with cultural markers that never leave the reader doubting her identity....Everything from the music, to the language affirms Amber's identity as a person of colour. This is a refreshing change, as more often than not, when stories include Black women, they often read like White woman painted Black for inclusion cookie points. I found myself relating with much of Amber's lived experience."--Fangs for the Fantasy " Becoming Midnight is an interesting addition to the vampire-genre that has taken the world by storm. From its use of biblical and mythical history to its descriptions of the modern vampire culture, this book has some intriguing twists to the typical contemporary vampire-stories."--Sandy Kemper, from the Kindle Book Review Publisher Marketing : Ambrosia Wharton is a little faster and a little stronger than her classmates.
